Trump’s Eating Habits Are Weird and Sad

Eating dinner with President Trump would be a great honor (for around 36 percent of the American people who think he’s doing a good job), but because of some recently shared odd eating habits, serving him might be a bit of a nightmare.

An exclusive from Time, which shared details of an intimate dinner with the President and Vice President at the White House, revealed some dinnertime eccentricities of Trump’s.

“The waiters know well Trump’s personal preferences. As he settles down, they bring him a Diet Coke, while the rest of us are served water, with the Vice President sitting at one end of the table. With the salad course, Trump is served what appears to be Thousand Island dressing instead of the creamy vinaigrette for his guests. When the chicken arrives, he is the only one given an extra dish of sauce. At the dessert course, he gets two scoops of vanilla ice cream with his chocolate cream pie, instead of the single scoop for everyone else. The tastes of Pence are also tended to. Instead of the pie, he gets a fruit plate.”

Short of causing him a major coronary while in office, the president’s eating habits shouldn’t really matter to the American people. Sure, he should set an example of healthy eating and self-care for the country he leads. Sure, he should care about his health, but Donald Trump isn’t really going to have financial issues should he need some extra medication or heart surgery one day.
